The United States could see more than 200,000 deaths from Covid-19 by October 1, a closely watched model predicts as states continue to reopen. The projection comes as 18 states are still seeing an upward trend in new cases.
Arizona and Texas on Tuesday reported a record high in their daily numbers of new COVID-19 cases. Florida on Monday had the highest number the state has yet seen of new and confirmed cases in a single day, after three record-breaking days late last week.Eight states, including Florida, Oklahoma and Louisiana, have seen coronavirus numbers surge more than 50% in the past seven days compared to a week earlier, according to a CNN analysis of data from Johns Hopkins University.
But"when you start seeing more hospitalizations, that's a surefire sign that you're in a situation where you're going in the wrong direction," Fauci said. On Monday, Texas reported a new record high of 2,326 hospitalizations due to coronavirus. And in the past week, at least 12 states saw higher rates of Covid-19 hospitalizations.
